Tropical Geometry and Integrable Systems

This volume contains the proceedings of the conference on tropical
geometry and integrable systems, held July 3–8, 2011, at the
University of Glasgow, United Kingdom.

One of the aims of this conference was to bring together
researchers in the field of tropical geometry and its applications,
from apparently disparate ends of the spectrum, to foster a mutual
understanding and establish a common language which will encourage
further developments of the area. This aim is reflected in these
articles, which cover areas from automata, through cluster algebras,
to enumerative geometry. In addition, two survey articles are
included which introduce ideas from researchers on one end of this
spectrum to researchers on the other.

This book is intended for graduate students and researchers
interested in tropical geometry and integrable systems and the
developing links between these two areas.
